The WTA Tokyo (officially: Toray Pan Pacific Open ) is a tennis tournament of the WTA Tour that takes place in Japan's capital Tokyo . The venue is the Ariake Coliseum in the Ariake Tennis Forest Park .

Up to and including 2007, carpets were played in the hall. With the postponement to September (date until then in January / February) from the tournament calendar 2008, the event became a free-court tournament on hard courts.

Because renovation work for the 2020 Olympic tennis competition will be carried out in the Ariake Tennis Forest Park until July 2019 , the 2018 tournament took place in the Tachikawa Tachihi Arena in Tachikawa . The following year it took place in Osaka.

Until 2008 there was another women's tennis tournament in the Kōtō district of Tokyo , the WTA Tokyo (Kōtō) , and from 1990 to 2002 the WTA Tokyo II tournament also in the Ariake Coliseum .
